Blizzard Coming

So [Naaman] went dodwn and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the man of God. 2 Kings 5:14

There is a huge blizzard coming our way and should be in full force early in the morning. The winds started late in the afternoon but are to get stronger and is to change directions a couple different times and it is supposed to snow and the temperature is supposed to plummit. Good thing I went to the grocery store today so that minimizes the places that I have to go to in the cold. I'm still having trouble with the cold air on my lungs, so I will be sure to be wearing my scarf over my face for the next week.

Pete has to do reading every night so right now he is reading to me from his new book that he got at Christmas, The Black Stallion Mystery. He was excited to get that along with 2 Bobsey Twin novels. Books are great things in this house and like toys they are hard to give up.

The school is trying to raise money for new playground equipment so they are doing something different. What they are doing is having the children raise money and then every class is doing some type of challenge. The grade 3 class are doing 50 math problems and the Kindergarten class have to recignizing letters that they have learned and then have to place them with the corresponding picture, T for tent.

You can tell that Repete is out of sink at the moment. He is out of his routine that when he got home from school he was getting grumpy, really grumpy. He then told Truckerman that he didn't want to go back to school because they had to do work and he didn't want to do any more work. Truckerman said that he needed to learn his letter and numbers. His response was that he knew how to say them all and that he didn't need to learn to write them until grade 1 and that grade 1 was the hardest grade because they had to learn to write their letters and numbers all the time. I can't wait to hear the newest excuse.
